Sliver Of Blue
Just when I think there’s no chance at allJust when I think it’s the final fallThrough the gray and cloudy skiesThere comes a sliver of blue, shining through, that’s you Paths I’ve chosen seem unimportant these daysStruggling through the morass of disappointing waysThat I’ve chosen to travelMysteries I’ve forgotten to unravel Too busy these days…

Your Walls
Blank stares, sterile teethFlashing through silent lipsIs honesty just a dream now?Is honesty just a dream? Alone – it’s not so bad, true it’s sadBut the lies, there’s just too many nowAnd the cries of the helpless and gutlessWho can judge, you? – maybe you?
